Liverpool Thread - 2022/23

The way history is being re-written I fully expect Heysel to be investigated by BBCs rough justice & pardons & compensation handed out to the convicted thugs.

Won't happen. The same reason being Jack Straw is no longer in the Government.

Couldn't understand a word.

I could. The man is a ****.

In fact, I'd say he's a Thunder ****

Did he ever face the consequences of Shields pardon?

No. Never explained why he had done something no other Home Secretary had ever done. Refused to answer the legal questions it raised and most importantly refused to explain on what legal basis it was done.

Would not be surprised if there were something VERY dodgy about that whole saga.

So were the fences to blame at Hillsborough? Because if the fences weren’t there Liverpool fans could have escaped the crush from behind and got on to the pitch. The fences at the front of the stand stopped Liverpool fans from getting to safety and on to the pitch. Has Tony ever blamed the Hillsborough fences?

Putting aside the fact that Evans is being an utter **** over Heysel and that Liverpool fans were primarily responsible for what happened there regardless of what he claims, IMO the fences did play a role in what happened at Hillsborough. In 1981 Tottenham played Wolves in the FA Cup semi-final there and Spurs fans were housed in the Leppings Lane end. There was a crush following Tottenham's opening goal which lead to 38 Spurs fans suffering injuries. There easily could've been fatalities due to the fences but the police - to their credit, unlike 8 years later - helped alleviate the situation by opening the gates at the front to allow Spurs fans to escape, many of whom were then allowed to sit around the perimeter of the pitch for the rest of the match.
